Abstract: |
The excavation was carried out in two parts. The first part consisted of trenching to evaluate archaeological features already identified by an earlier gradiometer survey. The second was an open area excavation consisting of two intersecting rectangular areas, encompassing some of the evaluation trenches. Six phases of activity were identified. The earliest dated from the Iron Age/early Roman period and included the remains of four circular buildings. A rectangular ditched enclosure with the remains of internal stone structures possibly dated from the 2nd century A.D. Further east, a later field system possibly dated from the 2nd to the 4th centuries. The final phase consisted of a farming landscape dating from the 12th to 13th centuries. [Au(abr)] |
